On another busy Friday for new music, we've got Ryan Beatty's wonderful third album Calico.

If you're looking for something to soundtrack your weekend, Beatty's new record is simply perfect, out today via Elektra/Atlantic Records U.K. It includes the previously released lead single "Ribbons," a stunning introduction to the new LP.

"What I love about ‘Ribbons’ is that the music says so much on its own,” explains Beatty. “Especially in the last minute, it feels like finally exhaling after holding something in for so long.” 

In addition to the record itself is an accompanying mini-film, also out today, directed by Peter De Potter. That visual can be seen above.

Hear the new album now.
